Property
Description
Working directory
The directory where the WSA writes temporary files when required. Enter a valid path name.
Installed Default: @{WorkPath}
Log filename
The WSA log filename. Enter a valid path name.
Installed Default: @{WorkPath}\wsa1.wsa.log
Logging level
A value that specifies the amount of information that is written to the WSA log. Select from the following values in the drop-down list:
*None — Log no entries. This is equivalent to turning logging off.
*Error Only — Log OpenEdge error messages. This includes all error messages and is unrelated to the entry types specified. Errors continue to be logged at all higher levels.
*Basic — Logging Entry Types determine the logged information. Each entry type generates at least some output. This is the default.
*Verbose — Logging entry types determine the logged information, but it is typically more information than Basic.
*Extended — Logging entry types determine the logged information, but it is typically more information than Verbose.
Note: A value of Other in this field indicates an option manually specified in the ubroker.properties file that provides additional diagnostic logging features. You can reset this by choosing from the values in the drop-down list.
Installed Default: Basic
Append to log file
A check box that indicates whether or not a new server log file should be created when the WSA is started.
To create a new WSA log file each time the WSA is started, even if the WSA log file already exists, clear the Append to log file check box.
To append log entries to the existing WSA log file, select the Append to log file check box.
Installed Default: Selected
Log message threshold size
An integer value that limits the amount of SOAP message detail written to the log file for clients specified using the Debug Clients property in the Advanced Features category. A value of -1 indicates that all SOAP message detail is written to the file. A positive value indicates the number of characters written to the file for each logged SOAP message. Practical values range from 100 to 10000, but any positive value is valid.
Installed Default: -1
Logging entry types
A comma-separated list of valid entry types for WSA logging. The only standard entry is WSADefault. Set additional entry types only if instructed to do so by Progress Software Corporation Technical Support.
You can specify a separate logging level for each log entry type, and you can use a wildcard (*) to specify multiple entry types. For example:
UBroker.Basic:3,UBroker.ThreadPool:4,
UBroker.Client*
Log file threshold size
A value of 0 or a value between 500,000 and 2,147,483,647, where 0 means there is no limit on the log file size other than what the operating system imposes.
Maximum number of log files
The number of rolled-over log files to keep. The value can be 0 or a value between 2 and 999999, where 0 means there is no limit on the number of WSA log files to keep. The specified number represents the maximum number of log files to keep on disk at any time, including the current log file being written to.
The default value is 3.
When the file becomes equal to or greater than the Log file threshold size, the client process renames it and creates a new log file. The file is renamed as follows, where ###### is a number starting at 000001 and increasing to 999999, after which it rolls back over to 000001:
filename.######.extension
